Scholars' Academy is a great middle school and high school. I started this school from 6th grade and I am currently in the 8th grade. The teachers conference alot to keep you up to date on what your strengths and weakness's are and how you can improve. There is alot of extracurricular activities, the parents are very involved in the school and the school safety agents make it very safe at Scholars'.
I am honored to now have my daughter attend Scholars-she is currently a 6th grader and like her brother before her, loves the school. Everyone is great from the office to the teachers, to the principal. One welcomed change is corresponding with parents via email-I love it.
It's a great school with lots of diversity and culture. However, sometimes it can feel like you have been enlisted in the army. But for the most part its good.
The teachers are very kind to me and help me where they think Im lacking. Also, they help willingly. Overall, I reccomend this school to children who have a high work ethic and think out a situation thoroughly. Our principal is a great; he helps with clubs and occasionally steps into our group dissucsions. I would highly reccomend this school to young scholars. :)
This is a great school with excellent averages, nice teachers and great oportunities. u cant take cell phones but that is for your own saftey. some times it feels like they are working you to the bone, but it is well worth it.
the quality of the education of this school is great, and the teachers are great. the only bad thing about this school is that the students do not respect the teachers, and students do not respect eachother
This school was the best school that i have ever been to. It has the best education a child could get. My daughter started going this year and she thinks that this school is so much better then her other school. I am very satisfied with this school and its teachers!
I am a substitute teacher and have enjoyed the atmosphere at Scholar's Academy. The students are very enthusiastic and willing to learn which certainly makes my job easier. Just a great pleasure for me every time I get called to teach there.
This school is the best kept secret. I am a graduating 8th grader and couldn't be happier with the education I received. I aced the tachs test making it in to every catholic school I applied to along with the nyc specialized high schools. I am staying at scholars for I know that by doing so I will achieve greatness. Scholars is destined to be the #1 high school around. Nick
I think this school is a fine school. The school keeps the parents involved and up to date. i attend this school and the teachers are friendly and helpful. the teachers are teachers you can go to if you have a problem and will be glad to help. i love this school. it is academically high in the charts. i also love how the teachers are expirenced and love students
I am a 6th grader who attends The Scholars' Academy. I love all the teachers there and am very happy to be a part of the violin club with Ms. Copin. I also love how every marking period for the extended day period my class and I get a new foreign language to learn. So far, I learned how to speak chinese, latin, and I learned how to do sign language. I am presently learning spanish.The principle, staff, and all the teachers are very supportive and intelligent. I am proud to be a part of the Scholars Academy family.
I currently attend this school, and think it is awesome. I am on the girls basketball team, which they had for the first time this year! I love every teacher even if i am not in thier Cohort. I rate this school and environment an Excellent!
I am student at this school, and if I had the choice to go here again, i would take it in a heartbeat. This wonderful school is filled with many sports, clubs, extra help, and activites to allow each and every student to participate if they wanted to. Your child will have a wonderful learning experience at this school.
This is an update from what I posted last year. The school has greatly improved its communication with parents via frequent e-mail distributions and updates. I still highly rate this school and encourage parents of sixth graders to aim for Scholars' Academy. What it has to offer is unique in the city; I understand it has also caught the eye of the education community as a rising star in the NYC Dept. of Education. That attention has been well earned!
This school is amazing. My daughter has been going here for 3 years, and this is her graduating year. She is so sad to be leaving such a wonderful school. =]
